  • A man passes for that he is worth. What he is engraves itself on his face, on his form, on his fortunes, in letters of light. Concealment avails him nothing; boasting nothing. There is confession in the glances of our eyes; in our smiles; in salutations; and the grasp of hands.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1983). “Essays and Lectures”, p.319, Library of America
